Easy tank to learn?

[Absurdity]

They were talking rotations and you come here and link the DRK opener which is frankly not even that bad when you look at GNB's opener:

Because that's not an opener, it's every burst window over 3 minutes. If you just look at the opener it has less double weaves and is a lot less spammy than DrK's opener. Sure the 3 minute Bloodfest + No Mercy is counterintuitive but I've complained about that on multiple occasions already.

What we need to compare here is just "The Pull" part of this graphics with DrK's opener, not the entire graphic.


If you want to compare rotations I don't think you have much of a leg to stand on either. GnB's rotation might looks complicated but all of these No Mercy windows naturally flow into each other by just pressing your abilities on cooldown, in reality it's really simple. Whereas DrK's 1 minute loop consists of 45 seconds of just pressing 1-2-3 with the occasional EoS to not overcap on MP and then 15 seconds of "spam every oGCD you have"

Defo absurd to say GNB is hard to learn ^

Would vote for GNB as easiest tank, easy rotation, early free healing with aurora, early gap closer so downsyncs well

Camouflage gives you extra CD whenever you need / want

Not the most indestructible but no.paper tiger either so a nice middle ground

I'm saying you were mentioning opener and this was about rotations, and while I misspoke about opener and meant to talk about GNB's rotation, I do think GNB's is more complex/involved than DRK considering movement and things like Continuation. So you come here to talk opener but the discussion was about rotations.
